Leader Name: Ahmad Haider Abdul-Aziz Ahmadinejad (yup yup).
Leader Age: 31.

His favorite pastime was to read about the different cultures of the world, specifically countries like the United States. Simultaneously idealistic and cynical, Ahmad got it in his head that Saudi Arabia should have the same freedoms as the United States.

only one tower?


welll...how do you make a mine

Vehicles: Nil
Defense: Palisades, Towers 100/100
Resources: 100,000

What are resources for? Why haven't I used any?

I don't understand, I have the technology to make a gun but not the technology to make boats that were around since the 1500s? And a "chemistry set in a greasy kid's basement" would be the height of technology in 1900.

My workers know how to build a tower but don't know how to dig a hole? (And they built one tower in EACH town. And quite a few lighthouses). People have been mining for literally thousands of years.

Doyle hands 200 of the scientists guns, essentially turning them into un-trained soldiers. He says unto the scientists "Go out into the wilderness. If you find any survivors that are not already citizens of England, bring them too me. Do not return empty handed."

It is not expected that the 200 scientists will survive long.

Sir Doyle then turns to the rest of the scientists and says
"If you don't make me a freaking ship with THREE SAILS, you will all be kicked out of England. And may I remind you that this is an ISLAND."

The Workers are commanded to present their own body weight in coal to the nearest village, mine or not, by the end of the week. If they fail in this, they must run 10 miles a day for ten days. If they succeed, they get a break for the weekend.

The soldiers continue their target shooting, and are each given a roast turkey to keep them happy.

Cause it's for building and advanced research


It's your naval faculties that are lacking


Also you can make a hole But you can also carry th chance that it will fall on your head which is a good one


They return saying they found nothing

Threatening/bribery/etc do not work here

Same as above, why? Ask hyper what happened when she let her scientists be angry in the ancient civilization game


They turn into grunts

Well, that's why I have thousands of workers. Actually, wait...

The 200 scientists who had the GALL to return empty handed will now be miners. And their children shall be miners, and their children's children... etc.

Since we have had mines for literally 43,000 years, is it really to much of a leap logic to just assume we already have some mining tech?

All of the workers create lumber for the scientists to use in boat building. Again, lumberjacking is one of the most ancient of professions, and I think it is fair to say that this does not require research. Obviously you can disagree.

The workers also begin to construct a harbor , about where London is.

I send half of my soldiers to look for potential iron sources.

The other half continue their training, and are given many hams for their efforts. MANY HAMS. Like five hams each. Is a grunt an improvement? If not, I take back the hams. All of the hams.

Also, Sir Doyle Demands that there be much procreation, for children are needed to swell the ranks of the workforce. To promote such actions, all families with a pregnant person will receive a complimentary houseplant.

Well you wasted 200 scientists wut now

Simple yes fo surface minerals

Nope you have lumber capabilities you start taking it down and sending it for a harbor negating the cost

They find some nice deposits to the west

Yeh it is

For makin bacon you get 2k peeps auto grown sO just distribute
